Make a difference at UWEC through sustainability implementation

Intro

UW-Eau Claire offers nationally recognized sustainability research, academics, and internships. The campus serves as a living lab, with first-year courses leading composting efforts in dorms and students collaborating with administrators to improve dining sustainability. Since 2008, the Green Fund has empowered students to launch their own sustainability projects, and the Office of Sustainability creates custom internships for students with passion for implementing new programs. Visit our office to talk about how issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and the unequal impacts on humans intersect, and what we can do about these challenges right here at UW-Eau Claire.
